Really??? The results of this social engineering was obvious from day 1 for anyone with half a brain.
This happened because the homeless are untreated mental patients. It is a complete disgrace.
Congrats. I’d think they’d had burned it down by now.
It’s gone exactly how we predicted this would go.
“Didn’t go as planned” means “did go as expected.”
Truly baffling. Whodathunkit? People that know no value for things, taken from a sewer, are expected to live a life of culture and elegance. This ain't Pygmalion.
These "creatures" who live in the streets: addicts, insane, pathologically lazy; they cannot be reformed. That is the life they choose. And will not be dissuaded.
And for liberals to insist that to segregate the nation's unwashed and unwanted is tantamount to discrimination? Again, that just underscores the idiocy inherent in liberalism.

Most homeless people are homeless for a reason. Personal squalor.
It’s mostly a drug problem. If you don’t deal with the drug issue first, putting them in public housing just moves the problem to the public housing. See the last 20% of the video at the link above for a proposed solution that has a good track record.
Are you paying attention?
Get ready.

“That approach calls for placing the homeless in long-term housing without first requiring treatment for mental illness or addiction. Many experts say it is the best way to help people who have trouble helping themselves amid the chaos of homelessness.
But as housing first has emerged as a national policy consensus, some have begun to warn that it is being applied too broadly and at times with inadequate support for people who arent ready for the independence and responsibilities of living by themselves.”
Gee. YA THINK? Oy! These Holier-Than-Thou Social Engineers!
“Many experts say...” *SNORT*
Leftards believe in determinism and behaviorism. Fix the environment and you fix the person.
THE ROAD TO HELL IS PAVED WITH GOOD INTENTIONS.. Now theres cops and sh*t in what used to be a nice apartment building. Stop helping the homeless! They are homeless for a reason. and dont cherry pick one or 2 homeless families that really are there because of bad luck. 99% of them can’t hold a job do to drugs, alcohol, bad sexual choices or mental issues . I personally knew a homeless man in a wheel chair, he had back problems. he could have gotten a job at walmart as a a door person, the local government offered him housing and help getting a job. his excuse? I dont want to live in those apartments and whos gonna hire me? He CHOSE to live in his car and beg outside the KFC for meals, even though he got a disability check!! 99% of all homeless people are self screwed!!!!!
The social engineers who dream this crap up are the same o es who dreamed it up in the early 1950s. The results never change. Real engineers learn from experiments and adjust; social engineers are immune to real world results and continue their child-like beliefs.
Just wait until we stuff 150 MS-13 illegals into that same building.
Same thing happened in France when they tried to mainstream criminals, thugs, reprobates, slugs, druggies and other assorted human debris.
The BOOK says you have not because you ask not. Maybe so. You also have not because you try and work not.
We have spent TRILLIONS to create opportunity and aid of all sorts. It has not worked out very well at all. The material is damaged. All the money is a bad investment for the most part. The effort has produced very little in the way of good sustainable results.
